[3/4] I share their outrage, but I think it would have been better in this situation not to quit. Now they will be replaced will loyal henchmen. If they had stayed in position until fired, they might have had the chance to do something for justice and get away with it, at least for a while. In the old days, officials resigning in outrage would have been a scandal and had an influence on the next election. But today's magats are so isolated from the truth that they will hardly care about
